Kakyuu was kneeling in the small chapel, crimson dress situated around her knees and hands clasped together upon the wooden bench. Her ruby eyes were closed, thick lashes brushing her pale cheeks, and strands of the purest wine color fell along her shoulders, strung back only in simple loops that professed perfect elegance and duty. Lips moved silently, whispering the words of a hundred prayers her mother taught her and so forth...all of which for her people, for her Starlights...for Earth...
She didn't understand why she suddenly felt the urge to pray today, at her own chapel no less, but she had risen that morning anyway, throwing on her simple dress and taking no one with her. Reckless? Definitely. However, she trusted her people and their love for her...to bring a guard with she was sure would shatter that trust and so she went alone. The chapel was empty say for herself and the red head gave herself fully over to her pleas for peace and safety...knowing with certainty that this is what she had to do...despite nothing more than a feeling rattling through her system.
